Feedback and Suggestions - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

One quick comment. The sequences are becoming a bit too long. I wouldn't care if I had a lot of time on my hands but I am really busy so it would be easier for me if the sequences were just a little shorter.
It is only a suggestion so you can ignore it if you want.

I would wholeheartedly agree. The sequences are far too long, and as a consequence the opening threads are too many pages and too wordy, and I feel bad for those masochists who read them. The TTT sequences will be shorter.

Thanks for the suggestion.

The TTT sequence list will be up by 1-Feb-06 and the discussion of the first sequence will begin the following week on 8-Feb-06.

Hey, just want to give some encouragement by saying that I have enjoyed the discussions immensely so far and I really enjoy reading alatar's opening posts. Especially the stuff about Elrond and that day 3000 years ago. I actually laughed out loud, which never happens when I'm on the computer. Anyway, kudos to you guys for starting the discussions and keeping this going!

Looking forward to discussing TTT, but if you'll excuse me, I must go and sink my teeth into FOTR-Seq 13.

While hammering away at the TTT sequence list I've noticed a few things: Not all sequences will be exclusive to one of the three story lines, not all sequences will be short and there just seems to be more scenes than in FotR. Couldn't be due to the extended running time, could it?

Also note that some changes will be made as detailed review of the sequences occur. Plus, suggestions are always most welcome....

I was just thinking... given that the discussion seems to have slowed down from previous sequences, what if we slow down the new sequences as well? that'd give us time to discuss things better before yet another sequence is brought up.

Any thoughts?

It sounds like a good idea for me. I would like that because I'm approaching that hectic time of the year and I don't have as much free time.
